Over the last 41 years, there have been 125 accidents caused by incorrectly rigged gliders, leading to 10 fatalities and 8 serious injuries. These accidents continue to this day. In 2014 alone, 3 gliders were flown with an insecure or unconnected elevator; one flew with insecure wings both of which, lacking the main pin, detached from the glider during landing.

All accidents of this type are completely avoidable. We’ve produced a new leaflet on this subject highlighting the simple steps that we can all take to eliminate these kinds of accidents.
